May the Fourth Be With You!


When I was a kid, one of my favorite things was when Mom would announce we were having a Star Wars marathon and caramel corn.  As Mom was popping the popcorn, the kids would crouch down in the kitchen, and pop up and down like the kernels in the air popper.  Once everything was made up, Mom would turn the caramel  out to cool on brown paper bags, and we would sneak a few pieces early.  Then, as a family, we would watch as many of the movies as we could before falling asleep on the couch.

For the last few years, I decided to celebrate May 4th with a Star Wars marathon and caramel corn.  It's not as good as Mom's, but I make do.  It's a fun excuse to watch great movies and eat a fantastic treat!

May the 4th be with you, everyone! :)
